Healthy Directions & Dr. Sinatra Introduce Omega Q Plus® Lutein, a Unique Heart and Eye Health Supplement

BETHESDA, Md., May 13, 2014 /PRNewswire-iReach/ -- Healthy Directions, LLC, today announced the launch of Omega Q Plus^® Lutein, a unique eye health supplement formulated by Stephen Sinatra, MD, that provides optimum support for healthy vision and heart health by combining the most comprehensive cardiovascular health formula on the market with nutrients proven to promote eye health.

By adding lutein, along with zeaxanthin and zinc picolinate, to his cornerstone heart health supplement Omega Q Plus®, Dr. Sinatra developed a one-of-a-kind product that supports healthy vision by providing antioxidants critical for maintaining eye health, while delivering proven cardiovascular benefits at the same time. Lutein is an important compound in the human body, but the body is unable to produce it. As a result, it is one of Dr. Sinatra's top nutritional picks to protect both your eyes and your heart.

"Because lutein and even zeaxanthin are the only carotenoids known to be absorbed directly by the eye, it's critical that we include them in our diet," says Dr. Sinatra, an integrative cardiologist and nutritionist. "Furthermore, lutein is a key component for any antioxidant product to prevent the harmful effects of oxidation."

In addition to Lutemax™ 2020—a special combination of the most widely researched and recognized eye health ingredients lutein and zeaxanthin—Omega Q Plus® Lutein contains zinc for extra protection for macular health and overall vision, plus CoQ10, DHA-rich Calamarine® omega-3 oil, and other essential heart health nutrients for complete cardiovascular support.

"Healthy Directions is excited to offer this all-natural heart and eye health supplement that you won't find anywhere else," says Healthy Directions CEO Connie Hallquist, "and since vision and heart health are top concerns, I'm delighted that we could work with Dr. Sinatra to build upon his very popular Omega Q Plus® supplement to create an exclusive formula that addresses both of these areas."

Omega Q Plus® Lutein is the latest formula in Dr. Sinatra's extensive line of Omega Q Plus^® supplements. It is not sold in stores and is only available at DrSinatra.com, HealthyDirections.com, or by calling toll free 1-866-599-9491.
